If they would react to the same way they do today to letters, you'll get a form letter back with a "I understand your concern..." filled in by a staffer and the rep won't even see it. (Hope this stayed out of the political arena )  |  IP: Logged Tony Hall Film Handler Posts: 18 From: Saginaw, TX, United States Registered: Jun 2004 posted 09-16-2004 09:27 AM                     If this hit the political arena im sorry and just delete it, but considering one of the biggest partys involved is Hollywood I would think its safe even if it is political arena.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 09-16-2004 10:12 AM                    Letters do count. Especially those that seem individual and not where someone prints up something drafted by an organization and puts their name on it. The representative or senator may not ever see it but the staff does indeed keep track of mail, email and phone calls pro or on an issue (actual snail mail counting most of all) to see which way voter opinion is going. Each letter received represents many more who feel the same way but didn't write. Bottom line: If you feel strongly about something you should go ahead and write.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.
